For those wondering #WhatsUnderTheWater, we’re about a week in to the lake drawdown. This is at Pavilion Point, and the waterline is normally where the lighter rock meets the darker or redder rock. The Cabin Cove is pretty shallow for quite a ways out, but it’s a little rockier below the Pavilion. Great fishing spot, though. 😉 #lakedrawdown #lcra #inkslakesp #inkslakestatepark #texasstateparks #betteroutside | Inks Lake State Park - Texas Parks and Wildlife

Our Ohio State Parks are full of natural wonders and sometimes we see incredible wildlife like this bobcat! These cats are very elusive and are nocturnal so it's rare to see one in the wild. Our naturalist at Lake Hope State Park captured footage of one wandering around the park last week. These usually solitary creatures only interact with others during mating season. Fun Fact: Bobcats purr! 😺 Who knew 🤷 To learn more about this animal, visit: : https://bit.ly/4b3s6mO Video: Kaylin Callander
